Still Is the Rainstorm

Into the evanescing night Floats hope, now restrained to a dream Within the edges which incite Tales clinging unto the extreme : Russet of summer, ebb of tide Blows whispers as rainstorm nears Its last heaving when moons provide, A bright glint reflecting my tears. Although long my amble on hills Time does bestow my earnest bid, To forgive, a strife from love's chills Allowing mist to end tight grid-- Old stories drown under seafloor Through August , warm the hues blending... For magical is the beam ashore My heart at peace ...never-ending. Brian Strand Late Jan 2019 Contest Not entered in any challenge
